Academic Advising

Dedicated to your success

As a student in the Cliffe College of Creative Arts, you’ll work with your academic advisor to explore your interests, create a plan to achieve your academic and personal goals, and prepare for a successful future. We've designed the advising system as an integrated teaching and learning process built upon an ongoing interactive partnership between students and their advisors.
